Laura Stevenson Drops 'Jellyfish' w/ Noisey; Fall Tour Kicks Off 10/14

Laura Stevenson shares a new voice on her fourth album, Cocksure, slated for release October 30th via Don Giovanni Records. Produced by long-time friend and collaborator Jeff Rosenstock of Bomb The Music Industry!, it is a straightforward, to the point, emboldened rock and roll album. After more than a year of national and worldwide touring alongside reputable acts including Against Me!, The Go-Go's, Cursive's Tim Kasher and The Gaslight Anthem, Laura Stevenson will kick off a national fall tour on October 14 in DC.

When it comes down to it, Cocksure thrives on spontaneity. It takes the delicate uncertainty of her previous work and weaves it into something confident, colorful and alive. "Jellyfish" is an irresistible, gritty punk track that touches upon themes of self-imposed exile, anxiety and the search for comfort in the midst of it all.

"Jellyfish" premiered with VICE's Noisey.

Where 2013's Wheel harkened to Stevenson's folk and country leanings, Cocksurerepresents a new era for the songwriter. Joined by musicians Mike Campbell, Alex Billig, Peter Naddeo and Samantha Niss, Cocksure was engineered by Joe Rogers at Room 17, and mixed/mastered by Jack Shirley. It was mostly recorded live, resulting in a raw, spontaneous feeling that makes the album an accumulation of Stevenson's journey, on and off the stage. Be sure to catch her performing live in a city near you!
